Answer:
Explanation:
Raw material extraction and processing always impact on the environment, resulting as they do in soil degradation, water shortages, biodiversity loss, damage to ecosystem functions and global warming exacerbation.
Explanation:
Herbert Hoover was under the impression that the stock market crash of 1929 was a simple market correction, that it would go away if everybody just acted like everything was normal, and that markets simply do these things from time to time. Billboards circa 1930 with the blurb "Wasn't the depression terrible?" kind of summed up his tone-deaf approach to massive unemployment and runs on banks. He honestly believed that government intervention was not the answer.
By the time Roosevelt took office in 1933, he understood that no quick solutions were to be had. He did start a lot of public works projects, like the Works Projects Administration (which gave a lot of people short-term employment teaching, painting post office murals, and cleaning up public lands) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (which put a lot of broke farmers to work putting a utilities infrastructure in place in parts of the South, putting the pieces of a post-agricultural economy in place).
He also instituted several "bank holidays" to discourage panic-driven depositors from taking all their money out of their banks. Austerity became the new normal in America and stayed that way until the US entered World War II.
In most urban areas, it is very common that there is a lot of pollution as a result of all the cars and pollutant producing things like vehicles. Thus making it quite a problem as it can have many health implications (if on a large scaled (see cities like China where people have had to wear masks to prevent any toxication)). Pollution also contributes to global warming which is an ongoing issue that affects the entire world.
It exemplified the New South Era because South wanted to change from an agrarian economy to an industrial economy but there were many white racist antisemitic people conspiring against that. The Ku Kluk Clan for example actively participated in the lynching of Leo Frank a Jewish American factory superintendent who was convicted of the murder of a 13-year-old employee Mary Phagan. The trial was biased and the press inundated the case with misleading information. Leo was hanged by a mob that later formed the Ku Klux Clan.
